I am sending out wedding invites in a couple of months, but I want to ensure that when people RSVP with a guest that they put thier name and also thier guests NAME on the rsvp so that we can do place cards and also know the names of the people who are coming (out of politeness).
Also, a friend of mine suggested doing this as well bc a lot of people RSVP themselves plus guest, even when they have no clue who thier date will be, and then when they don't find a date in time, you are stuck paying for a person who never even came. This way people have to KNOW who they are bringing when they RSVP with a guest.

Sure glad I am not getting one. I never know until the day. DIfferent people are not available all the time. Why should I have to know who I am bringing? But then, I guess I could fake a name. Most wedding planners offer a response card. I believe Hobby Lobby has one too. They have spaces for the people to complete.

Good luck, dear. Both of my daughters have been married recently. I was appalled at the rudeness of people. RSVP means nothing to some. As the weddings drew closer we were on the phone to get confirmations. In this day and age, when you receive an invitation which includes a card WITH A STAMP ON IT, please just fill it out and stick it in the mail. We needed to confirm numbers with the caterer and I still cannot believe some of the excuses I heard. My favorite " Yes, we will be there. It never occurred to us that you didn't already know that".

For our RSVP card we had a line underneath saying
_____# of people attending
______Sorry we cannot attend.
It was great to help us tackle #'s. Also if people don't know the name of guests, on place cards....put--- John Doe's guest (or date)

The general rule is that the RSVP card indicates a number, and you call them to find out the name of their guest.

Usually if that person is not dating someone or doesn't have a date at the time of the invite, what the place card should say is 'guest' along with invitee.

We sent out invites to ____ and Guest for those that were welcome to bring a guest. We then included reply cards that said:
Name(s) ________________________
___ will attend with pleasure
___ must decline with regret
So far we only received one response that said ____ and Guest because the guest is still tbd.

if it's a large wedding, i would nix that idea, what would happen if they break up between now and then? just write " reserved for John Doe and guest"
if it's a small wedding, i would just call them and see who they're bringing.
